To make the cone moulds, tear off 8 pieces of baking paper (each 15cm wide). Fold into cone shapes, making sure the pointed ends are closed, to prevent leakage. Secure with staples in a few places. Sit cones in glasses for support.

The Fruit Pops are made by blending (in a food processor or blender) the diced flesh of the fruit of your choice with yoghurt to make a thick smooth mixture. Each combination makes 2-3 cones.

Blend a ½ cup of yoghurt with (from left):

2 peeled, chopped bananas and 2 tablespoons of honey

1 punnet of rinsed and hulled strawberries and ½ cup of guava juice

1 peeled and diced kiwi fruit and the flesh of a ¼ piece of honeydew melon

Pour the mixture into the cones. Freeze until semi frozen, push a paddle pop stick into pops and freeze overnight.
